If only you had started building your list a year ago then you would be in a better position than you are today.

Here is the good news.

If you have not started already then you can start building your list from today, and if you have only done so half-heartedly until now then you can really put passion and effort into it from today.

Jon has repeatedly said that his main regret during his time online is not making list-building a priority from day one and Tony Tezak, another leading player in the industry, has said exactly the same on this blog.

If you missed yesterday’s TELive then do try and find time to watch the recording as Jon had some really great tips about how to communicate with your list of subscribers.

I think that this is a topic which will come up several more times in the weeks and months ahead so if you have any questions about any aspect of list building then bring them to Jon in TELive and he will answer them for you.

It is also great to see that the decision to award CTP Teams players bonus team points for building their lists is really catching on.

In case you missed it, you will get a 2% bonus for your team for each new name you put on your RocketResponder list.

It has been just a couple of days since this was launched and already it is having an impact on CTP Teams as these screenshots show…

This is a huge opportunity for you to build your business as you have fun with CTP Teams.

There had been complaints in the past that there was too much emphasis on people getting team points from making purchases or taking upgrades at the expense of others who were building their businesses.

Well there is no better way to build your business than laying the rock solid foundation of a healthy subscribers’ list.

Finally you can check how many new people you added to your list in a new “subscribers” column next to your name on your team profile page.

“Well it tells me that TimTech are leading yet another affiliate contest…super yawn…very interesting…now tell me why I should care.”

Wow someone is in a bad mood today…what else does it tell you?

“Hmm that Tony Tezak is doing well too?”

No, no, no, you are totally missing the point because today’s lesson is all about list building.

If you have been around this industry for any period of time then you will know that TimTech is pretty much at the top of any affiliate contest it enters.

In fact TimTech is so good at this, that some people ensure that TimTech is excluded from their contests for that very reason.

Yesterday in TELive Jon explained the number one reason why his company does so well in these contests.

It is because TimTech has been building lists of subscribers for many years and makes this a key feature of its business on a daily basis.

It is having a list that allows you to do things such as:

– educate and inform your subscribers about things they are interested in

– cement your position as an authority figure within your niche

– publicize your range of goods and/or services

– make sales

– make sales

– make sales

Thankfully we have sometthing at TimTech which allows us to do all this…it is called RocketResponder and you can take full advantage of it too for just $20-a-month.

How important is it to build a list?

Well put it like this. If you are working online (or offline for that matter) and not building a subscriber list then everything else you are doing could be for absolutely nothing at all.

Or as Jon explained in TELive yesterday: “Your vision going forward should be to stop focusing on getting 10 cents from surfing and start focusing on how to get 10 new subscribers instead.

“We made a mistake by not focusing on subscribers at the very beginning but it not a mistake we will make again and it is not a mistake we want you to make either.”

New RocketResponder feature for CTP Teams

We want to make it really easy for you to begin building your list so we had a bit of a brainwave.

We already know how much people enjoy being on CTP Teams and helping their teams do well. So we have introduced a new feature where you get a 2% team bonus for every new subscriber you bring into your own mailing list using Rocket Responder.

So you build your list, your team gets a bonus each time your list grows and everybody wins.

Jon said this feature was aimed at “bringing the focus back to BUSINESS in the traffic exchange industry” and that is exactly what you need to be doing if you are serious about making your online activities pay off for you.

By the way, another really easy way to find the RocketResponder page to enter your CTP username is to go to your team page on CTP Teams and scroll to the bottom where you will find a link to the page you need.

Finally the message here is not to stop surfing…of course we want you to use our traffic exchanges, it is just that surfing for mere pennies is not the way to go.

Here is that screenshot once again…there is good money to be made if you work smart at building your business and using RocketResponder to build your list of subscribers is one of the smartest moves you could make.
